A first step would be to make it work in the following case:
1- the user does M-x revert-buffer in the archive buffer.
2- the user does M-x revert-buffer in the archive member buffer.

One way to get this result (not necessarily the simplest, but one that
would make a lot of sense in general) is to extend archive-mode with
a file-name-handler.
E.g. if you open a /foo/bar.zip, you could access its members with C-x
C-f /foo/bar.zip#/toto.c.
